Sunday April 10th 2011?
or
Sunday May 1st 2011?

When I am a guest at a convention I am there to entertain people and add to the fun they have at the event. thus, unless the game session is advertised as one where the objective is to kill the PCs--and I've done a few of those--I try to keep PCs alive. Of course if a player doesn't want to have his character survive, the natural selection process of the game environment will take over.

Looks like we should aim for the 1st.

	Because World of Warcraft has been the leading culprit in dumbing down the genre to make it easy enough for the mainstream audience who has never heard of an MMO before to hop in and enjoy. Now, this isn't necessarily bad. But the soaring popularity of World of Warcraft has pigeonholed the entire industry into creating clones in order to be successful.

With things changing, the days may change. Things will most likely stay May 1st.

We should have a sealed tourney
We'd play the rules where everyone gets a fair share of rares etc
My idea was we'd all buy a booster box and divide out the packs evenly. Essentially we'd be just buying the boosters.

Just like a standard sealed tourney, we'd open, select and pass
[
At the end we'd pile up all the rares, uncommon, commons and pick in order of final ranking of the tournament

If you win first place, you pick first.

With 6 people that would be kind of fun, 6 people buying 4 packs each means 24 rares and or combination with mythic.

The worst case scenario is you'd pick 6th out of 24

Geoff brought his cards to work yesterday and has perked my interest in playing again.

Lets start planning something!
